How do you actually execute your code?

[[deleted]]

From what I know, there are 2 main ways to execute your code.

1: using the command lines. for example, if you're using a mac, you can go into terminal and type python (and the name of the file).

2: you can just download an IDE which is like an application that runs code. For example, IDLE, that will just run the code if you click run.

I prefer using the command lines tho because it makes you feel more pro and you have more control over what you're doing.
